Kylie - Studio Manager

Kylie's the name, and art's the game! Kylie graduated back in 2016 with a BFA in Studio Art and a minor in Art History, and continues to create one of a kind pieces, specializing in Realism and Surrealism. She helped open the Brentwood Studio in 2016, and had worked at a different paint and sip for a couple of years before that. While she had to leave for a bit during all of the Covid craziness, Ky is back and more excited than ever! Her main goal is that everyone has an absolute blast! (This is a party right?) So be ready to have a couple drinks, meet some new friends, and have a great time at Painting with a Twist! For commissions, please feel free to reach out to her instagram at @artbykypie

Kelsi - Assistant Manager

Hello! I'm Kelsi, I'm a simple Midwestern woman with a passion for all art media. I have experience with panting in acrylics, watercolor, and oils. I also enjoy spreading out in my living room with my three cats, and just doing some good old arts and crafts! I really do love making a homemade art piece for a loved one or a friend for presents. Momma always told me it's the heart that counts!
